Jubilee Roasting Co

Jubilee Roasting Co is a specialty coffee roaster founded in 2015 in Aurora, Colorado, by Peter, who started the venture after living in his van while finishing his last semester of college in Boulder. The company began in a converted warehouse that was once used for police stings in the 1970s, with the dual mission of roasting incredible coffee and helping North Aurora build a community identity. The company's core philosophy centers around the belief that they are "not the most important thing around us, but rather a small part of a larger story, community, and product journey." Their mission statement has consistently been to "create well and be good neighbors." This philosophy extends to their coffee sourcing practices, where they work to build mutually beneficial relationships with coffee farms across continents, often purchasing from the same farms year after year to grow lasting partnerships. Jubilee Roasting Co operates two locations: their original roastery and cafe in Aurora at 1452 Kenton St., and a smaller downtown Denver location at 1075 Park Ave W. The Aurora location serves as their primary roasting facility and operates Monday through Friday from 7am-5pm, Saturday 7am-3pm, and is closed Sundays. Their downtown Denver location operates daily from 7am-3pm. The company has experienced significant growth and evolution over its nine years of operation, including two renovations of their Aurora space, the addition of their downtown location, upgrading to a larger coffee roaster, and multiple brand identity updates while maintaining their core values. They have weathered various challenges including plumbing issues, vandalism, and the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrating the resilience that characterizes small businesses. Jubilee offers a range of coffee products including their signature blends like Moonbuggy Blend and East Side Blend, single-origin roaster's choice selections, and Colombia Sugarcane Decaf. They provide subscription services, gift subscriptions, and various brewing accessories and merchandise. The company also emphasizes sustainability through their commitment to compostable coffee bags. Throughout their journey, Jubilee has maintained a strong focus on community engagement, including years of monthly free coffee offerings and supporting various community celebrations and initiatives. The company continues to prioritize building relationships with coffee producers worldwide while serving their local Colorado communities with carefully roasted, high-quality coffee.
